Mei can use the smallest pot with capacity of 2400 milliliters to heat all the soup

Solution:

Given that,

Mei has 8 jars of soup

Each jar contains 300 milliliters of soup

Therefore,

Total amount of soup = 300 ml x 8 jars

Total amount of soup =
300 * 8

Total amount of soup = 2400 ml

Hence, Mei can use the smallest pot with capacity of 2400 milliliters to heat all the soup
